Lovely Hotel perfect locadet. Realt friendly straff.

Nathan, United Kingdom

The breakfast was excellent and good value for money

Karon, United Arab Emirates

Smiling staff eager to solve all your queries & extend support for making you comfortable

Arun, India

The entire staff were very accommodating and polite. They offered suggestions for places to tour. The housekeeping staff were very flexible with the hour in which we needed our room cleaned. We loved the place! The food at the restaurant was exceptional.

Ronald, United States of America

Great location in the heart of Madrid. Nice small hotel. The room was very spacious.

Ahmed, Egypt

Excellent location.... base camp to all the best spots by foot. And your immediate neighborhood is full of excellent bars with best tapas and pintxos in Madrid. The hotel has an excellent breakfast that you can include with your room for $9euro/pp. All the cappacinos you can drink and custom eggs to go with a selection of fruit, pastry and typical continental breakfast. We did not eat in the hotel restaurant, but it was packed both nights. The hotel bar is comfortable to hang out in and a good few of the street. Our room was comfortable but maybe a little small. It also had no window to the outside... but it was a last minute booking and all they had left. We only slept in the room, so no big deal. Shower was really nice with big rain head from cieling.

Steve, United States of America

The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was not included, but was worth every penny. There was a good choice, what there was was excellent. The best thing being they made your coffee for you, americanos were excellent. The restaurant had a great range of tapas and the wine was good. The rooms all look into a courtyard of sorts - so not much natural light, but for the amount of time anyone spends in their room, it did not matter. It is a stone throw from the Plaza Mayor. Mr Pinkleton's is just a two minute walk and is an excellent night out. I would definitely go back and stay here.

Jeanne, Jersey

The location is fantastic if you love to walk thru the lively city of Madrid. The room in the roof floor is very original. It is a bit smaller than it looks on the photos but it is very beautiful. It has a huge, very comfortable bed, a small sofa, a very good shower and even a bathtube big enough for two with whirlpool function. It is more a mini suite than a simple room. Staff at the hotel is very friendly. The bar and the restaurant are frequented by locals and there's a lot of life. I'd come back to this winderful place again

Db_bcn, Spain

The tapas restaurant and wine bar attached to the hotel are first class. All the hotel staff could not have been more helpful, they really were great. Would (will) stay here again, without doubt. Metros nearby and street has more tapas and vermut than is good for you.

눉Tea and coffee facilities would have been nice in the room .
눇Thank heavens there was soundproofing in the bedroom. This is a party neighbourhood and the street was noisy till 2 am. Also the bar and restaurant were noisy because of the layout of the building, but the architect had cleverly installed an extra door near the bedroom. The welcome drink was a nice surprise. I moved next door to their partner hotel for 4 extra nights and the staff were very good, storing my luggage and even taking it next door for me. Much appreciated.

눉I don't like rooms without an exterior light source (i.e. window to the outside). I think there was one such room on each of the 4 or 5 floors. If I ever go back, I will be sure not to book one of these rooms.
눇Excellent location.... base camp to all the best spots by foot. And your immediate neighborhood is full of excellent bars with best tapas and pintxos in Madrid.

“Semana Santa at the Posada del Leon del Oro”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 7 nights
눉It would have been nice to have tea and coffee making facilities, but there’s a bar downstairs and Starbucks not far away (are they ever). The restaurant is more ‘modern’ Spanish and our selections of baby calamares and hake didn’t really hit the spot, but the desert was good. There’s no lobby or seating area in the hotel, the sofa shown on the website has been replaced by restaurant tables and chairs. So if you want to lounge around the hotel you need to do this in the bar or on the bed in your room.
눇Our stay at the Posada de Leon de Oro was very enjoyable and pleasant. I would be happy to both recommend this hotel and to return again for another stay. Our room had a small balcony which overlooked the Calle Cava Baja. As it’s one of Madrid’s famous bar & tapas streets, was very busy in the evening, however, the shutters and double glazing helped to block out most of the noise. Our stay coincided with holy week and we had a very interesting birds eye view of one of the processions as it slowly passed our balcony. The hotel’s central location is ideal for sight-seeing, it’s only a few minutes walk to Calle Mayor, Puerto Del Sol, and then a few minutes more to Palacio Real, Gran Via, El Prado and El Retiro. We were able to take in a lot of the sites without having to use the Metro. Although this was also very easy to use, we got a ticket for 10 journeys (‘un billete de diez’ one of my first Spanish phrases after ‘una cerveza por favor’) The room itself was of a good size, clean, with a modern design including a walk in shower and a daily maid service. The air conditioning worked well and was very quiet. The bed was a super king size, or perhaps larger, and very comfortable, completely addressing my usual complaint of not sleeping soundly when away from home, late nights (midnight) and sleep ins were the norm. The bar was really good, busy with friendly staff, they speak English, but are happy to go-along with your basic Spanish if you want to feel like integrating more. The food at the bar was usual Spanish raciones and tapas, serving olives, anchovies, tortilla, patatas alioli / bravas, croquettes, huevos de corral, ham, cheese, etc, which all went down well. There’s also a good selection of wines as well as beer. Breakfast was fine; tea, coffee, juice, cereals, toast, cheese, ham, etc, with the option of cooked to order from a menu should you wish, although our scrambled eggs came out more as an omelette.
